Abstract

In order to improve the comprehensive competitiveness of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), a cloud manufacturing service platform for SMEs was implemented with the idea and model of cloud manufacturing (CMfg) in this paper. Using the transaction mode of multiple enterprises, multiple orders, and multi-party collaboration, the architecture and workflows of this cloud manufacturing service platform were designed. Some common engines, such as intelligent matching engine for supply and demand, transaction coordinating logic engine, and credit evaluation engine, were researched, which implement the semantic intelligent searching, order tracking, transaction task guiding, and collaborative management in the whole process of CMfg. As a case, this platform has been applied in the automobile and motorcycle parts manufacturing industry, which effectively integrates manufacturing service resources in this field through online services and offline services (O2O), achieving the effective management of service resources.
